Let’s walk through the full process of diagnosing a No Power scenario on an iPhone 8. This includes diagnosing at the logic board level.
First, we check with the USB Meter (https://amzn.to/3xKji3t) how much current draw there is when trying to charge.
Then we can run a Tristar Tester (https://www.mobilesentrix.com/smartmod-pro-tristar-tester) to see if any issues are detected in the charging circuit.
Next, we take the board out of the housing & test the logic board only with the DC Power Supply / DT880 (https://vccboardrepairs.com/buy-dt880-v2).
Once we see there’s current draw before prompt to boot, we use the Seek Thermal Cam (https://amzn.to/34I4whX) with Macro Lens (https://www.vccboardrepairs.com/buy-macro-lens) and stand (https://vccboardrepairs.com/buy-seek-stand) to try to find the source of heat.
In this case, we found GSMPA_K was shorted. So we replaced it... but then we ran into trouble.
Make sure to watch the full video to fully understand the troubleshooting & diagnosing process of repairing an iPhone 8 that has no power & does not turn on.
